5.4 SafeTaxi

SafeTaxi

is an enhanced feature that gives greater map detail when zooming
in on airports at close range. The airport display on the map reveals runways
with numbers, taxiways with identifying letters/numbers,
airport Hot Spots,
and airport landmarks including ramps, buildings, control towers, and other
prominent features. Resolution is greater at lower map ranges. When the aircraft
location is within the screen boundary, including within SafeTaxi ranges, an
airplane symbol is shown on any of the navigation map views for enhanced
position awareness.
Designated Hot Spots are recognized at airports with many intersecting
taxiways and runways, and/or complex ramp areas. Airport Hot Spots are outlined
to caution pilots of areas on an airport surface where positional awareness
confusion or runway incursions happen most often. Hot Spots are defined with
a magenta circle or outline around the region of possible confusion.
